Setting up a campaign exhibition booth in a city with such political significance required full preparation — from anti-imperialist resistance flags and Palestinian banners to graphic images of the crimes committed by the brutal Zionist forces in Gaza.
The central focus of our booth was the issue of Palestine, viewed through the lens of the world’s need for a savior.
While most of our visitors were young people, there was also an elderly woman who had grown deeply resentful of Israel amidst the world’s shifting political landscape. She asked about our activities, took one of our brochures, and spent a few moments talking with us.
Our conversation began from the issue of Palestine and led to the need for a savior. She said she believed that saviour would return soon and put an end to wars and injustice around the world.
We told her that we, too, believe in the return of Jesus and the coming of a savior — someone who doesn’t just care for one nation or group, but for all of humanity. We explained that our presence there was to emphasize the importance of praying for his arrival and doing our part to raise awareness and prepare others for that day.
That’s why, we said, the first step is to truly understand who this savior is. To avoid making her bored, we briefly explained the core purpose of our exhibition and the Imam Mahdi campaign.
Most of the people who visited us agreed on one thing: the failure of human rights organizations and so-called peace-keeping governments. They expressed hope for the day when justice would prevail with the arrival of the Promised Savior.
